The value of RS in the line segment is 20

To solve for RS :

From the line segment attached :

The information given is :

RS = 3x - 16

ST = 4x - 8

RT = 60

RT = RS + ST

60 = 3x - 16 + 4x - 8

60 = 7x - 24

60 + 24 = 7x

84 = 7x

Divide both sides by 7

84/7 = x

x = 12

RS = 3x - 16

RS = 3(12) - 16

RS = 36 - 16

RS = 20

HENCE, RS = 20

A floor tile is 20 inches wide. If the perimeter of the tile is 72 inches, what is the length of the tile?

Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

16 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Perimeter = 72 inches

Breadth = 20 inches

Perimeter = 2 ( L+B )

72 = 2 ( L+20)

72= 2L + 40

72-40=2L

32/2=L

L=16 inches

therefore , lenght of the tile is 16 inches

Oh. It's rounding. So, for example, depending what you were told to round to, the second problem would be 760-330=430
